Printed Electronics: The Global Market

Printed Electronics: The Global Market

Analyzes the global market for all types of printed electronics (PE) Emphasizes applications that will be commercialized in the next five years, the types of PE technologies used, and the resulting market for PE materials and third-party/contract fabrication services Examines the projections of PE commercial production, which is currently valued in the tens of millions of dollars and is projected by some analysts to increase to tens of billions in the next 10 years Offers insights on where the most valuable opportunities exist in the PE value chain, i.e, in applications, basic PE devices, manufacturing, or materials.
